Which OROGOLD Face Mask is Right for You?

When rounding up your essential skincare routine, face masks might not be part of the roster. Most people might only have the basics — a cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen. And while that’s completely fine, you might be missing out on the extra benefits a mask may provide you. An OROGOLD face mask may fit right in to improve your regimen.

Masking may not exactly be mandatory in your regular skincare regimen, but it’s nice to treat your skin to one when it’s begging for extra love and attention. There are many kinds of masks out there. You just have to pick out the best one for your skin’s needs.

If you’re looking for a more luxurious and opulent masking session, pamper yourself with a gold-infused OROGOLD face mask. There are loads to choose from depending on what your skin is craving. Read on to see which face masks are most suitable for you and your skin concerns.

How to Choose the Right Face Mask for Yourself

Every face mask has a specific purpose in your beauty regimen. They even come in different formats, from single-use sheet masks to clay that hardens on your face.

Choosing the right face mask for yourself can be overwhelming. But the key to pinpointing which one is best for you lies in two important factors: your skin type and the active ingredients in a mask.

First, let’s talk about assessing your skin type and condition. Before selecting any skincare product, you need to have a thorough understanding of what your skin needs. Is it dry and thirsty for hydration? Is it oily and clogged up, begging to be detoxified?

The mask you choose will rely on this evaluation. After all, you can’t use a super thick and rich face mask on your already oily and greasy skin. At the same time, you shouldn’t dry out your complexion even more with a stripping charcoal mask if you have dehydrated skin.

You should also think about the top skin concerns you want your face mask to address. Do you want to brighten up the look of those age spots, or plump up the look of your skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines? Knowing what you expect out of your mask makes choosing one a lot easier.

Take a look at the active ingredients of each face mask to see if it can help you address your skin problems.

Whatever your skin type or concern is, it’s important to be gentle to your skin. Make sure the mask you go for doesn’t have harmful or potentially irritating ingredients, like parabens. Luckily, every OROGOLD face mask is paraben-free to keep your skin safe and healthy.

Here are eight OROGOLD face mask options for you, depending on what your ultimate skin goal is:

To Get a Radiant, Even-Looking Skin Tone: 24K Bio-Brightening Pigment Balancing Mask

Dealing with dark spots? Even out your complexion and add a bit of glow with the 24K Bio-Brightening Pigment Balancing Mask. It’s chock-full of skin-loving vitamins A and E to make your skin feel plump and hydrated, as well as mica to give your complexion that youthful radiance you want.

This OROGOLD face mask comes with a silver spoon to easily scoop out the product. Apply it to a freshly cleansed face and leave it on for around 15 minutes before rinsing it off.

To Reduce the Look of Congested Skin: 24K Collagen and Seaweed Mask

Those with oily and congested pores will fall head over heels with the 24K Collagen & Seaweed Mask, a kaolin clay mask that leaves skin feeling detoxified. It also has hydrating ingredients like safflower seed oil, sage, and retinyl palmitate to keep the appearance of wrinkles away.

Kaolin is known to be one of the gentlest forms of clay in the cosmetics world. That said, this mask isn’t drying or stripping. It plumps up the look of the skin because it’s balanced out with moisturizing oils and vitamins.

To use this mask, apply a generous layer on clean skin. Kick back and relax for 10 or so minutes before rinsing everything off with cold water.

To Combat the Visibility of Wrinkles and Fine Lines: 24K Nano Hydra Silk Mask

If you’re starting to notice the visible signs of aging popping up on your complexion, bust out the 24K Nano Hydra Silk Mask. This face mask is infused with sodium hyaluronate, vitamin E, and hydrating fruit extracts.

Sodium hyaluronate is a derivative of hyaluronic acid, a popular humectant known for making skin look smooth and plump.

This mask is also rich in botanicals, from aloe vera, bilberry, goji, noni, and mangosteen extracts, among others. These help hydrate the feel of the skin for a gorgeous glow.

What’s cool about this OROGOLD face mask is that it isn’t a wash-off. You can leave it on your skin, making it a terrific once-a-week alternative to your nourishing night moisturizer.

For Dry Skin: 24K DMAE Instant Stretching Mask

In the colder months, your skin can get a bit more dehydrated than usual. Quench its thirst with the 24K DMAE Instant Stretching Mask, a mask made with a fine blend of moisturizing oils.

This OROGOLD face mask is formulated with jojoba and sunflower seed oils, which add hydration to parched skin. They also leave a slight dewy finish to the skin, making it look naturally glassy. This mask helps minimize the appearance of stark wrinkles and lines, making you look younger.

You can use this wash-off mask every week, allowing it to seep into your skin for 15 minutes before rinsing it off. Be sure to follow up with a high-quality moisturizer after using this mask to help seal in all the goodness from your masking sesh.

To Wake Your Skin Up with Essential Vitamins: 24K Tèrmica® Energizing Mask

If you’re looking for something fun and innovative, you might enjoy the thermal heating effect of the 24K Tèrmica® Energizing Mask. The heat makes it easier for your skin to absorb all the essential vitamins in this OROGOLD face mask, including vitamins C, E, and A — three of the best vitamins for healthy skin.

Use this rinse-off mask once a month to keep your skin feeling rejuvenated, strengthened, and protected from the harsh elements.

To Boost the Feel of Elasticity and Firmness: 24K Advanced Facial Mask

Worried about your skin looking saggy and loose as you get older? Counter this with the 24K Advanced Facial Mask. This creamy mask is infused with cannabis and gold to smoothen the feel of your skin, keeping your complexion looking tight and firm for longer.

This OROGOLD face mask is infused with cannabis sativa in the form of hemp seed oil, which is known to reduce visible signs of skin aging, like the appearance of wrinkles.

Applying this mask is super easy. Just massage it into your cleansed face and allow it to rest for about 10 minutes. Rinse off and enjoy your soft, smooth skin.

To Soothe the Feeling of Tired, Irritated Skin: 24K Deep Tissue Rejuvenation Mask

Here’s an OROGOLD face mask that comes in a unique hydrophilic gel sheet format — the 24K Deep Tissue Rejuvenation Mask & Collagen Renewal Mask. It’s infused with lavender and collagen to soothe the feel of inflamed or irritated skin, leaving behind a texture that looks smooth and soft.

One box of this OROGOLD face mask set gives you 12 eye masks and 14 face sheet masks. So if you use a mask once a month, you’ll have more than enough for an entire year.

When wearing these single-use sheet masks, make sure to leave them on for at least 15 minutes before taking them off. That way, you can maximize the serum and make sure all of the nutrients seep into your skin.

To Revitalize the Appearance of Dull, Dehydrated Skin: 24K Rose Hold Hydro Mask

Lastly, we have the 24K Rose Gold Hydro Mask, a rosehip-infused mask that wakes up exhausted and dehydrated skin for beautiful radiance. It’s formulated with hydrating ingredients, as well as 24K gold, for a lavish masking experience.

This face mask can double as a night cream since you don’t have to wash it off. Swap it for your moisturizer once a week to get extra moisture for your parched, weary skin.

Why Are Facial Masks So Important for Your Skin?

Even if you religiously slather on your moisturizers and serums every day, sometimes your skin will crave more hydration and rejuvenation. Face masks are the perfect way to give your skin a little more than what your basic everyday routine does.

Sure, face masks aren’t always necessary. You can even get away with using them just once a month. It’s more of a supplementary skincare step you can look forward to when you want to give yourself a little extra self-love. It’s your weekend treat — an indulgence you don’t always need, but your skin will drink up anyway.

Face masks are excellent at hydrating your skin, making it look and feel smooth and silky-soft to the touch.

But face masks aren’t just functional skincare products. They have an amazing emotional benefit too. They’re super therapeutic, especially when they have gorgeous aromas from essential oils and botanical extracts. They’re a great way to wind down and cap off a long, tiring week.

Conclusion

Because there are a plethora of gold-infused OROGOLD face mask options to choose from, it can be overwhelming to select the one that will suit your skin best. So, use this rundown as a guide when shopping for your next spa-like masking treatment.

Whatever your skin is going through, there’s always an OROGOLD face mask to pose as a solution. Not only will the masks above target your most pressing skin concerns, but they’ll also let you sit back, relax, and pamper your skin with a luxury treatment at home.

5 Uses for Gold in Skincare Products

When we think about gold, most of us envision gold bars, piles of money, and fine jewelry. We’ve been conditioned to equate gold to wealth, after all. From cartoons to film to real life, we’ve been shown that gold is something to work for and long for, a status symbol in its own league.

However, gold brings more to the table than just luxury and prestige.

Throughout history, mankind has discovered a diverse array of gold uses for products. From medicine and dentistry to beauty, this precious mineral has proven itself to be much more than just a status symbol. Want to know why you’ll find 24K gold in each and every OROGOLD product? Read on…

Golden History

Trendy ingredients come and go, but gold has remained a prominent player in the realms of beauty and health for centuries. The metal has gone down in history for being not only a staple in the routines of some of the most powerful women across the world but as a medicinal marvel as well.

Several key historical moments have taught us about the multiple gold uses for products:

Ancient Egypt

Many gold products on the market reference Cleopatra in their names. The reason behind this is simple: the Egyptian ruler is the best (and first) known figure to use gold for beauty.

It’s been said that Cleopatra was a staunch believer in the benefits of the mineral. Historians claim that the Egyptian ruler covered her face in a mask made out of pure gold every night. This is why, in her honor, we named one of our collections the Cleopatra Regimen.

Ancient China

For a time, Ancient China was recognized to have the most advanced applications for gold. In the Ming Dynasty, gold was used by surgeons and physicians to treat a variety of skin conditions. In particular, gold was applied to smallpox and skin ulcers to remove toxins from the skin.

Ayurvedic Medicine

Ayurvedic medicine, which is one of the world’s holistic healing systems that hails from ancient India, also employed gold, among other metals, for therapeutic and medicinal purposes. According to a 2011 study, it continues to prove useful in alleviating chronic and debilitating diseases.

Throughout history, cultures from all over the world have passed down their beliefs in the beautifying powers of gold. Today, we continue to harness these benefits in our skincare.

Ahead, discover five of the top uses for gold in beauty products. These are just a few of the reasons why OROGOLD products all contain pure 24K gold.

Soothes the Feeling of Sensitivities

Those with sensitive or acne-prone skin would benefit largely from gold’s ability to reduce the feeling of redness and inflammation. However, to truly reap the rewards of your regimen, it’s recommended to combine gold with other soothing ingredients.

The 24K Purifying Toner

Take Orogold’s 24K Purifying Toner, for instance. Toners pick up remaining debris after cleansing while simultaneously balancing the feel of the skin. However, this product adds an additional benefit: calming the look of your skin. This is especially important if your cleanser has the tendency to overly strip your skin of its natural oils.

While this toner has 24K gold at its core, it also contains a couple of other ingredients to help fortify its abilities:

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract or Aloe Vera Leaf Juice is one of the stars of this blend.

The 24K Purifying Toner also contains Cucumber Fruit Extract, which will leave your skin feeling soothed and calm.

The 24K Intensive Eye Serum

Compared to other portions of the face, the eye area is especially prone to swelling and wrinkling due to how delicate the skin is. To solve this, Orogold’s 24K Intensive Eye Serum hinges on one of the best gold uses for products, while adding other powerhouses into the mix:

Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract
Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, otherwise known as Green Tea Leaf Extract
Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract
Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein

Combats the Visibility of Environmental Stress

Gold is great for leaving stressed-out skin feeling calm and happy. Here are some of the best products for that:

The 24K Multi-Vitamin Collection

While there is no shortage of antioxidant-infused products, OROGOLD’s exclusive Multi-Vitamin Collection combines them in potent amounts to build a line-up of amazing skincare.

Here are some of the products you’ll find in the 24K Multi-Vitamin Collection:

24K Multi-Vitamin Day Moisturizer + Amino Acid, a lightweight and non-greasy moisturizer. Formulated with Vitamins A, C, E, and White Tea Leaf Extract, this product forms a sheer veil over the skin.
24K Multi-Vitamin Night Nourishment + Retinol, the evening counterpart of the day moisturizer. Combining Green Tea Extract and Vitamin E with Retinol, this rich formula can hit undo on the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
24K Multi-Vitamin Deep Peeling + Mandelic Acid. While exfoliators may sound intimidating, this product is gentle yet effective. Formulated for weekly use, this exfoliator contains Walnut Shell Power, Bamboo Extract Powder, Mandelic Acid, and of course, antioxidants like Vitamin C Palmitate and Green Tea Leaf Extract.
24K Multi-Vitamin Hand Mask, a moisture-boosting wash-off cream with antioxidants Betula Alba Bark Extract and Tocopheryl Acetate.

Fights the Appearance of Premature Aging

Gold is widely used in prestigious mask treatments. It reduces the look of sagging and gives the skin a firmer appearance.

The 24K Caviar Collection

Orogold’s 24K Kelp Caviar Micro-Bead Serum is a prime example of gold in the skincare frontier. Formulated for nightly use, this product delivers more than just a pretty, gold-flecked formula. Some of the ingredients that work alongside gold to combat the appearance of aging include:

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8
Glycerin
Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract
Calendula Officinalis Extract
Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract
Tocopheryl Acetate

These ingredients come together to form a powerful skincare cocktail.

Another notable product from the same collection is the 24K Kelp Micro-Bead Cream. Use it daily for maximum benefits.

Dive into the ingredient list and you’ll find a wealth of botanicals and vitamins to support gold’s abilities. Among them are Vitamin E, Vitamin A, and Kelp Extract.

Maintains the Feeling of Skin Moisture

Even as we talk about gold in skincare, we must remember that it is still a metal and mineral. As such, it has ions that are said to benefit the body by stimulating our cells.

While gold isn’t widely recognized for its moisturizing abilities, this actually goes hand-in-hand with gold’s ability to combat the appearance of premature signs of aging. Remember, dryness can cause the skin to look old and fatigued.

However, when we talk about skin moisture, our faces shouldn’t be the only thing we keep in mind. Moisturizing the rest of the body — neck, hands, and body — is just as important.

The 24K Classic Body Butter

This is where Orogold’s 24K Classic Body Butter comes in. Harnessing one of the lesser-known gold uses for products, it moisturizes the skin with a little help from cult favorite ingredients like glycerin, sunflower oil, and shea butter.

While the 24K Classic Body Butter is fragranced, its mild scent is anything but overpowering. For best results, the body butter should be massaged on to clean daily.

Boosts the Look of Radiance

Many gold uses for products do the work behind the scenes, but they ultimately materialize in boosted glow and noticeably radiant-looking skin.

Over time and through technological developments, we’ve seen gold take various shapes and forms. We see it in flakes, in powders, and in liquefied forms, but studies show that products with gold nanoparticles or nanopeptides not only penetrate deeper into the skin but can help with the feeling of hydration, elasticity, and a more youthful glow overall.

The 24K Bio-Brightening Collection

Harness this mineral’s ability to amp up the skin’s radiant look with Orogold’s 24K Bio-Brightening Collection. Expertly crafted to undo the look of hyperpigmentation and brighten the appearance of the complexion overall, this collection is made up of two products:

The 24K Bio-Brightening Dark Spot Solution, which is sold exclusively in a set with the Bio-Brightening Pigment Balancing Mask, does the heavy lifting by chipping away at the appearance of discoloration caused by acne or sun damage.

Apart from gold, the 24K Bio-Brightening Dark Spot Solution also contains Kojic Acid to lighten the look of the skin, Retinyl Palmitate and Ascorbic Acid to brighten the appearance, and Lactic Acid to gently exfoliate.

The 24K Bio-Brightening Pigment Balancing Mask, on the other hand, is available as a standalone product or as a part of a set. After the Dark Spot Solution does its magic, this product comes in to finish the rest of the job by evening out the appearance of the skin tone.

Superstar ingredients in this formula include Bentonite, Oligopeptide-68, Allantoin, and Panthenol. And, of course, a healthy dose of good ol’ gold.

With benefits and breakthroughs aplenty, this much is clear: gold is more than just a passing skincare gimmick.

Across cultures and through history, we’ve learned that this luxurious metal does so much. As more products and innovations come to light, so will more gold uses for products.

8 Must-Have Skincare Products for Summer

Summer. That time of year where we finally get to wear our sundresses, but also the time when our skin needs that extra TLC.

Along with the summer heat comes skin issues like sun damage, hyperpigmentation, and even premature aging. Breakouts and pimples are also quite common during this time of the year. A different skincare regimen is needed during the summer months — one that helps the skin stay hydrated while maintaining a clean and grease-free appearance.

Don’t worry, you’ve come to the right place. OROGOLD has the best skincare products for summer – here are the skincare products for summer you need to get that radiant glow you’ve always wanted.

Looking at Skincare Products for Summer? OROGOLD’s Got Just What You Need!

What makes OROGOLD stand out? Well, the answer is in our brand name. Gold.

For centuries, gold was thought to be the “elixir of life” – a magical solution for skin, and that’s why we infuse pure gold into our products.

Our gold beauty treatments are perfect for indulging yourself so you can obtain a flawless and radiant complexion just in time for summer!

Here, we list some of the OROGOLD skincare products that are a must-have so that you can have fun in the sun:

Replenish Your Skin’s Moisture with the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer

Notice how your skin feels tight and dehydrated after spending time soaking up all that vitamin D?

You probably need a good moisturizer for that extra hydration, and that’s where OROGOLD’s 24K Deep Moisturizer comes in.

This moisturizer is one of the best skincare products for summer because it prevents water loss. It is important to keep your skin moisturized during the hot summer months because your skin may become oily if it is dehydrated. This means your body will produce more of an oily substance called sebum to keep itself moisturized, since it can’t produce water.

The 24K Deep Moisturizer is packed with moisture-loving ingredients, like vitamin C and beta-glucan.

Even Out the Appearance of Your Skin Tone with OROGOLD’s 24K Cryogenic Restoration Cream

Summertime also means that you have to contend with problems like hyperpigmentation and sunspots.

When selecting your skincare products for summer, opt for gentle exfoliating ingredients.

The 24K Cryogenic Restoration Cream is your go-to because it has retinyl palmitate, alpha hydroxy acids, and vitamin C.

Water-soluble acids, also known as AHAs, are derived from fruit sugars. It helps peel the outermost layer of skin away. As a result, your skin will feel smoother after you’ve used this product.

However, it’s essential to protect your newly exfoliated skin from the sun because that’s when your skin is most sensitive. Exfoliation removes the fine protective layer from the skin’s surface or the “protective barrier”. When this protective barrier is removed, the skin becomes more vulnerable to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun.

That’s where SPF comes into play…

Protect Your Skin From the Sun with the 24K Skin Tone SPF 30

The sun can be your skin’s worst enemy. That’s why you should make SPF one of your must-have skincare products for summer.

SPF, or Sun Protection Factor, is essentially sunscreen that helps shield your skin from the sun’s rays. The most important feature of sunscreen is broad-spectrum protection. This means that it protects against both UVA and UVB rays.

SPF helps by extending your skin’s natural sun protection abilities. While you may see many SPF 50 products out there, an SPF 30 is all that you need. SPF 50 may technically offer a tiny bit more protection, but not in an amount that makes much of a difference.

OROGOLD has a luxurious broad-spectrum sunscreen that you should use daily to protect yourself from harmful UVA and UVB rays. This lightweight, non-greasy, sheer formula provides daily rehydration and protection from UV rays.

Reviews rave about how lightweight it feels on the skin, without feeling sticky or greasy. That makes this sunscreen a perfect addition to your summer skincare routine.

Mattify Your Appearance with the OROGOLD 24K Termica Activation Serum

The summer heat often proves to be an enemy to those with oily skin, leading to problems like clogged pores and acne breakouts.

A serum would be one of the best skincare products for summer that you could use. Since its texture is lightweight, it’s less likely to clog pores. It might even be able to replace your moisturizer if that has been too heavy for your skin.

The OROGOLD 24K Termica Activation Serum can help give you skin that looks clear and matte.

Enriched with a ton of skin-loving ingredients, this serum contains:

Witch hazel
Licorice root
Peptides
Sodium Hyaluronate
Green tea

Wash Your Face with the Goodness of Vitamin C with OROGOLD’s 24K Vitamin C Facial Cleanser

Vitamin C is universally known as a powerhouse ingredient. It’ll leave your skin looking brighter, smoother, and firmer.

You need to look for Vitamin C as an ingredient in your skincare products for summer because it has so many benefits.

Why has OROGOLD included vitamin C in this cleanser?

To increase skin luminosity, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and enhance the look of radiance.

The 24K Vitamin C Facial Cleanser is a mild cleansing liquid that rids the skin of all traces of makeup, dirt, and excess oils.

Packed with Vitamin C, aloe vera, and Retinyl Palmitate, this product is used to cleanse skin thoroughly without stripping away moisture.

Calm and Soothe the Feeling of Heated Skin with OROGOLD’s 24K Wild Caviar

Sensitive skin is another skin woe that’s pretty common during summertime. It’s vital to treat your skin with care and cut down on products containing too many active ingredients, so you don’t over-sensitize your dermis.

Hot weather leads to a person losing more water in their body. This makes them dehydrated. This may result in skin irritation, redness, and dryness.

The 24K Wild Caviar is a mask that cools down the feeling of reactive and heated skin, perfect for the summer heat.

The main ingredients in this mask? Just Wild American Caviar, gold, and tea tree oil. This simplicity makes it one of OROGOLD’s choice of skincare products for summer.

Wild American Caviar contains amino acids, ceramides, vitamins, and antioxidants that fortify the skin, healing that damaged skin barrier.

Harness the Potency of Volcanic Ash with OROGOLD’s 24K Sir Volcanic Blaze

Made exclusively for men, the 24K Sir Collection targets skin problems that most men face.

This product contains volcanic ash, which is a mixture of sulfur and bentonite clay.

Volcanic ash is similar to clay in that it soaks up sebum, making it especially helpful for those with oily, acne-prone skin. It’s a great ingredient because male skin tends to be thicker and oiler than female skin, making them prone to breakouts, especially during the summer.

This serum-like treatment makes for a great skincare product for summer because it keeps the skin looking fresh and healthy.

Enriched with a potent mix of ingredients like Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 and Sodium Hyaluronate, this blend visibly corrects the look of dry skin, dark spots, and wrinkles while also revitalizing the feel of the skin. This treatment also helps make the skin look taut and firm.

This product is designed to be used alongside other items from the Sir Collection. However, it can be used as a treatment on its own as well.

Rebuild Your Skin’s Resilient Feeling with OROGOLD’s 24K Rose Gold Age Glow Duo

The 24K Rose Gold Age Duo is packed with peptides, among many other beneficial ingredients like niacinamide and resveratrol.

This serum has two separate components to give your skin that extra boost of moisture it needs. First, apply the 24K Rose Gold Multi-Vital Liquid Powder. As it is massaged into the skin, it changes from a powder to a liquid, and then it is absorbed. Next, use the 24K Rose Gold Enriching Serum after the first step has been fully absorbed by your skin.

Summary

Having a regular routine is one of the main building blocks of great skincare, so it’s always important to be disciplined when it comes to this. It’s also good to understand your skin, so you can have an idea of what products suit you best.

So, whether you’re combatting the appearance of dry skin, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, acne, or even clogged pores, OROGOLD definitely has something for you! You’ll be able to display your skin with pride this summer if you add some of these products to your skincare routine – you’ll be glowing like never before!

OROGOLD Exclusive: High-End Skincare at its Finest

There’s nothing wrong with liking the finer things in life. Having a penchant for luxury may cost a pretty penny when you’re out shopping, but investing in the things that matter to you is never regrettable, especially when they’re beneficial for your health and wellness in the long run.

Expensive taste can translate into personal shopping, like for your skincare routine. There are many luxury beauty brands out there, so the choices are endless.

But some skincare brands merely slap on a hefty price tag without justifiable reason. Because of that, it can be difficult to look for high-end skincare lines that give you the quality you’re paying for.

The high-end OROGOLD Exclusive collections are made with exquisite ingredients and innovative skincare technologies. Let’s not forget their gorgeous packaging too. Whether it’s by using heat technology to maximize a hydrating mask or exfoliating your skin with brilliant, shiny diamonds, these opulent skincare lines give you your money’s worth.

Luxury Has Always Been at the Heart of OROGOLD

OROGOLD has never been one to shy away from luxurious skincare ingredients. Gold is at the forefront of most, if not all of our products. We believe that it’s key to giving your skin the glowing finish it deserves.

Our products make the glamour and opulence of gold more accessible to everyone, so that we can be like our ancestors before us who used gold in their daily beauty regimens.

But our OROGOLD Exclusive lines are a little different. They’re on the pricier side, but for a good reason. These collections are the crème de la crème that OROGOLD has to offer.

Not only are they infused with 24K gold, but they’re formulated with the latest technologies in skincare. They’ll give you the most relaxing, effective, and sumptuous beauty experience.

Ready to dive into our finest and most luxurious high-end skincare lines? Here are six of the best OROGOLD Exclusive collections we have:

Use Caviar to Pamper and Strengthen Your Skin

The first OROGOLD Exclusive line we’ll look into is the 24K Caviar Collection — a moisturizing line that features sea kelp and opulent caviar as its main ingredients.

This line is all about moisturization. The 24K Kelp Caviar Micro-Bead Cream, for example, makes use of vitamins A and E alongside kelp extracts to leave skin looking soft and dewy. This also reduces the appearance of harsh wrinkles and fine lines in your complexion.

For something more lightweight, you can use the 24K Kelp Caviar Micro-Bead Serum, infused with green tea and gold. This nighttime serum leaves your skin feeling soft and touchable when you wake up.

The most exciting product in this collection is the 24K Wild Caviar. This unique mask involves crushing real caviar eggs and applying the serum (which consists of majestic gold, soothing tea tree oil, and moisturizing caviar) to your skin.

The line also includes serum capsules rich in sodium hyaluronate and an ultra-hydrating mask that turns from white to gold as you massage it into your skin. The collection is rooted in innovation to give you the most luxe experience possible.

Treat Your Skin to All the Vitamins it Needs

Feed your skin the vitamins it needs to look bright, plump, and wrinkle-free with the OROGOLD Exclusive 24K Multi-Vitamin Collection. It combines vitamins C, E, and A to give the skin a revitalized look.

Experience the magic of retinol with the 24K Multi-Vitamin Night Nourishment + Retinol. This moisturizing night treatment is infused with retinol (a derivative of vitamin A), green tea extracts, and vitamin E to give your skin a more elastic look.

Another product you’ll love from this line is the 24K Multi-Vitamin Deep Peeling + Mandelic Acid. With exfoliating ingredients like mandelic acid and bamboo powder, this gel serum will shed all the gunk and dead cells from your skin to reveal a more radiant-looking complexion.

Mandelic acid is a gentle alpha-hydroxy acid extracted from almonds. It breaks down grime and dead skin cells, exfoliating your skin thoroughly for a texture that feels smooth, soft, and even. Meanwhile, vitamin C will give your skin a brighter appearance.

This collection also carries a day moisturizer rich and a hand lotion that provides your skin with jojoba and sunflower seed oils. This OROGOLD Exclusive line cares not just for your face, but other skin areas you want to keep looking smooth and youthful, too.

Moisturize with Rosehip Oil

If you have incredibly parched skin that’s always thirsty for moisture, you’ll enjoy the 24K Rose Gold Collection, which puts a stunning rose gold color and rosehip oil at the forefront of its products.

Rosehip oil keeps the skin feeling plump and firm – a priority for mature skin.

The most advanced and arguably most opulent product in this line is the 24K Rose Gold IV Filler Concentrate. It’s a powerful solution that zaps away the appearance of pesky lines. It’s formulated with DMAE and retinyl palmitate (a derivative of retinol).

The rest of the collection uses rosehip extracts, vitamin E, and sunflower seed oil to moisturize the skin. These products come in a rich nighttime cream, a hydrating mask, and a mattifying day cream.

Get a Complexion That Looks Brighter and Clearer by Exfoliating with Diamonds

If decadence and sparkle are your kryptonite, then there’s no doubt that the 24K Cryogenic Collection will get you super excited for your daily skincare routine. It makes use of diamond dust and AHAs to exfoliate your skin to keep it looking clear, smooth, and stunningly radiant.

The 24K Cryogenic Diamond Gommage is one product in the line that exfoliates the skin without being too harsh on it. This leave-on serum sheds off dead skin and washes away excess sebum. It’s infused with coconut, chamomile, and green tea to soothe the feel of the skin and replenish it with any lost moisture.

Another interesting product from this line is the 24K Cryogenic MagnoLift Mask. This mask is made with rosemary extracts, coconut oil, and sunflower seed oil to make your skin feel soft and supple.

What’s cool about this mask is that you use a special magnet to lift the mask away after letting your skin soak in it for 5-10 minutes. It’s an innovative skincare technology that allows for a richer, more opulent masking experience.

Intensify Your Beauty Regimen with Heat Activation

Energize and wake up the feel of your skin with a bit of self-heating technology in this 24K Tèrmica® Collection. Heat technology will leave your skin looking brighter than ever.

The star product in this line is the 24K Tèrmica® Energizing Mask. It’s rich in vitamins A, C, and E. The mask has a heating effect that warms up your skin for a relaxing experience.

You can make the mask above a little more intense by applying the 24K Tèrmica® Activation Serum, a gel infused with witch hazel, seaweed, and green tea. This serum eliminates the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

The collection even includes the 24K HD Touch. This is a face massager that helps you apply your creams and serums smoothly on your skin. It leaves the skin feeling super-relaxed.

Give Your Skin the Ultimate Royal Treatment

Feel like a queen with this indulgent 24K Cleopatra Nano Regimen — a three-part skincare routine that packs a punch. In this collection, you get a face cream, a lush serum, and sheet masks made with real gold. Together, they work to help you achieve a fresh, dewy, and radiant complexion.

Start with the 24K Cleopatra Gold Sheets. The delicate, gold-infused masks come in envelopes that have three sheets to be placed on different areas of your skin. Apply them to your forehead and each side of your face. Leave the masks on your face to absorb into your skin for 20 minutes.

Your next step is the 24K Cleopatra Nano Serum. Simply massage this serum into your skin until the gold specks melt into your complexion. Finish off with the 24K Cleopatra Nano Silk Cream. It will seal all that fresh, moisturizing goodness in, and you’re good.

If you can’t be bothered to go through too many steps in your routine but still want something posh and luxurious, this regimen is definitely for you.

Why It’s a Great Idea to Invest in High-End, High-Quality Skincare

Shopping for new skincare products is a constant battle between drugstore and high-end options. Don’t be afraid to splurge a little more for your skincare steps. When you pay a higher premium than usual, you know you’re getting top-quality goods. Just like those in the OROGOLD Exclusive lines above.

You shouldn’t scrimp when it comes to caring for your skin. Your skin is part of your body, unlike clothes you take off at the end of the day, or makeup that you can simply wash off. You must care for your skin with the best products you can afford. It’s not just a vanity thing — it’s for your health, too.

A high-end price tag is a sign that your ingredients are high-quality and properly sourced. When the ingredients are in their purest form, the more potent and effective your product will be. This calls for a more expensive price.

Another factor that can affect the price of a skincare line is how stringent and challenging they are to manufacture. This means that products with the latest skincare innovations may come at a luxury price. When the formula is more precise and is harder to perfect, the more you have to pay to get your hands on it.

Serums that are encapsulated or facial masks you peel with magnets are just some of the more creative and innovative products you’ll find in the OROGOLD Exclusive collections. Investing in opulent formats like these not only makes your skincare routine more fun, but gives you a unique experience, too.

In a nutshell, investing in high-end skincare products like those in the OROGOLD Exclusive lines assures you that you’re using high-quality products—ones that had a lot of thought and rigorous formulating behind them. You’re only getting the best of the best.

Conclusion

Don’t get us wrong — we’re not skincare snobs. We can appreciate a good eye cream or moisturizing serum that costs less than twenty bucks at the drugstore. But, once in a while, your skin deserves something more rich and lavish, like the products in these OROGOLD Exclusive lines.

Whether you’re targeting the look of fine lines and wrinkles, looking for a way to replenish intensive moisture into your dry skin, or just plain curious about the latest, top-of-the-line technologies in the skincare world, there’s an OROGOLD Exclusive collection suitable for you.

Check out any of the collections above to see how you can pamper your skin and treat it like a queen. Whichever one you choose, know that you’ll be walking away with skin that looks happy, healthy, and glowing.

What’s So Special About the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer?

Finger in jar of OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer

The search for the perfect moisturizer can be difficult and tiring.

Using moisturizers are a must for providing your skin with much-needed moisture and hydration. But, when most moisturizers in the market turn your skin into a tacky, greasy mess, what do you do?

Good thing, there’s a moisturizer to answer your problems… and even do more!

Here at OROGOLD, we are extremely proud of our very own OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer.

Light and non-greasy, this moisturizer sinks readily into your skin, giving you skin that feels smooth and lush. What’s more, this moisturizer features many star ingredients that can give your skin more benefits than just moisture.

Join us here at OROGOLD Cosmetics as we take a closer look at what exactly makes the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer an amazing moisturizer for all skin types.

What Makes the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer Special?

The 24K Deep Moisturizer is formulated with the skin’s health in mind. This moisturizer is made from the best ingredients for hydrating and moisturizing the skin, such as shea butter and Vitamin E.

Apart from this, the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer also contains gold – our brand’s star ingredient, which makes our products unique and sets us apart. It also has other ingredients proven to benefit the skin, such as Centella Asiatica and Vitamin C.

Let’s discuss each one in more detail.

OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer Ingredients

Gold

A skincare ingredient since the ancient times, gold has been found to pose many benefits to the skin. Most importantly, it gives the skin a bright and luminous appearance.

You can harness these benefits of gold in the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer, along with added hydration and moisture from the product. You’ll also find 24K gold included in each and every one of OROGOLD’s products.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is known for its moisturizing properties, which helps with treating the appearance of dry, flaking skin.

With Vitamin E in your OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer, you’ll definitely be able to get the hydration your skin needs. To give your skin an additional boost of vitamin E, save your OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer for nightly use, and try the OROGOLD 24K Multi-Vitamin Day Moisturizer + Amino Acid for daytime use. Don’t forget to top it with a sunscreen!

Shea Butter

Vitamin E isn’t the only hydrating ingredient in the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer. Shea butter is an emollient,which leaves the skin feeling deeply hydrated.

While the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer is designed for use on the face, this doesn’t mean that your body needs to miss out on shea butter. Give the 24K Classic Body Butter a try for skin that feels soft and supple all over.

Centella Asiatica

Centella Asiatica, also called cica, is a skincare ingredient that’s starting to gain traction due to the wealth of benefits it provides.

Not only does it reduce the appearance of redness and inflammation, but it also minimizes the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles.

In addition to the 24K Deep Moisturizer, you’ll also find this botanical in the OROGOLD 24K Cryogenic Diamond Gommage.

Vitamin C

Apart from the many moisturizing ingredients in the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer, it also features Vitamin C (in the form of Ascorbic Acid) for added benefits to the skin.

Vitamin C is an all-around skincare ingredient capable of addressing multiple skin issues. It brightens the appearance of the skin while minimizing the look of wrinkles and sagging skin.

With this in the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer, you get everything you need in a skincare product.

In fact, here at OROGOLD, we believe in the power of vitamin C so much that we’ve even created a special collection dedicated to this super antioxidant. Check out the OROGOLD Vitamin C Collection here!

Benefits of Using the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer on Your Skin

To know its ingredients is one thing, but are there really benefits to incorporating the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer in your daily skincare routine?

What can you expect from using this moisturizer constantly?

Keeps the Skin Feeling Healthy and Protected

Without sufficient moisture, your skin is prone to dryness and damage. Moisturizers remedy this problem by replacing moisture that’s been lost, as well as preventing moisture from being lost.

Additionally, using moisturizers can help keep your skin feeling strengthened against the environment.

Prevents the Look of Dullness and Flaking

Keeping the skin sufficiently moisturized helps avoid the appearance of dryness and flaking. This is especially true during colder seasons, when there is less humidity and therefore less moisture in the environment.

Without using moisturizers, you risk accumulating dead skin cells, the number one cause of skin dullness. This is especially true if you also don’t exfoliate (if you do, using exfoliants without using a good moisturizer may end up harming your skin!).

Therefore, investing in a moisturizer like the 24K Deep Moisturizer will surely allow you to keep your skin’s natural glow.

Calms the Appearance of Pimples and Redness

The OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer delivers sufficient hydration to the skin, making oil levels remain steady and stable.

When your skin gets dry – usually when you don’t use a moisturizer, or your moisturizer provides inadequate hydration – your skin compensates through overproducing sebum. This results in excess oil for your dehydrated skin, which can lead to acne breakouts when the excess oil mixes with dead skin and clogs the pores or hair follicles.

With the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer, you won’t have to worry about this problem. This moisturizer will surely keep your face feeling deeply hydrated.

Conclusion

Skincare is always an investment, and, on that note, the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer is certainly a great investment you can make for your skin.

We hope we’ve been able to explain well enough in this article how this moisturizer can transform your skin and elevate your skincare routine. Plus, with the wonderful ingredients it has, and the many benefits it provides, what’s there to say no to?

With the OROGOLD 24K Deep Moisturizer, you definitely won’t have to worry about your skin drying out during the harsh winters, or feeling greasy during the hot summers. This product offers you the best of both worlds — a light, non-greasy moisturizer, able to provide sufficient moisture to your skin at all times.

OROGOLD Reviews: The 8 Best Night Creams for Mature Skin

You may be able to get away with skipping the night cream while you’re in your teens and 20’s, but, after this, you’ll really start to notice your skin suffering in the mornings. As your skin ages, night creams become extremely important. They’ll help to plump away the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and lighten and brighten the look of those dark spots.

Of course, with hundreds of night cream products out there, how do you choose?

You’ve come to the right place. Read on as OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews the eight best night creams for mature skin.

For Retinol: OROGOLD Reviews the 24K Multi-Vitamin Night Nourishment + Retinol

Let’s start with one of OROGOLD’s bestsellers; the 24K Multi-Vitamin Night Nourishment + Retinol.

What’s so great about it?

For starters, it contains retinol. Ask just about any dermatologist which ingredients you should be including in a solid skincare routine, and chances are that retinol would be at the top of the list.

Why?

Because it’ll give you skin that looks and feels smoother, tighter, and firmer.

OROGOLD reviews show that this potent night cream also leaves the skin feeling noticeably softer, and so much less dry. Since mature skin is thinner, it dries out faster. Hydrating properties are something that you definitely want to look for in a night cream. With sweet almond oil, aloe vera, shea butter, jojoba, and chamomile, it’s not surprising that this formula leaves the skin looking soft and supple!

For even better results, OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews suggest using the 24K Multi-Vitamin Day Moisturizer + Amino Acid during the day. This comes from the same collection as the retinol night cream, meaning that the two contain ingredients that support each other.

For Intense Hydration: OROGOLD Reviews the 24K Overnight Cream

If your skin has been feeling a little parched lately, the OROGOLD 24K Overnight Cream will leave it feeling deeply hydrated. OROGOLD reviews are extremely positive for this product – customers love how they wake up to skin that looks and feels softer and fresher.

This is all down to its botanically-rich formula. It’s packed with plant butters and oils, including:

Sweet almond oil
Shea butter
Jojoba seed oil
Aloe vera

OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews show that this is a formula so perfect for thirsty skin. The multiple humectants in this blend make it even more so – these are what give the skin that instantly plump look after application.

For maximum hydration, apply the 24K Rejuvenating Skin Serum before applying the night cream.

For Skin That Feels Firmer and Tighter: OROGOLD Reviews the 24K Termica Completion Cream

If you’ve been looking into night creams for a while, then peptides are probably an ingredient that you’ve come across. In particular, acetyl hexapeptide-8 and palmitoyl oligopeptide.

You’ll find both of these ingredients in the 24K Termica Completion Cream. OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews reveal that this cream is exceptionally effective at reducing the appearance of sagging skin. Facial lines become less visible with regular use. The fact that this cream can be used in the daytime, as well as at night, means that regular usage is easy.

OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews also show that customers enjoy combining the Termica Completion Cream with the 24K Termica Energizing Mask. Again, these two products are both from the 24K Termica Collection. While mixing and matching skincare products and brands is absolutely fine, using a complete collection is much more likely to give your skin all that it needs.

For Skin That Looks Bright, Even, and Radiant: OROGOLD Reviews the 24K Cryogenic Restoration Cream

Unfortunately, in addition to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and increasing dryness, mature skin also often has to deal with the look of dark spots.

Why?

It all comes down to sun damage. These dark spots are the result of all of those times you bared your unprotected skin to the sun. The damage accumulates over the years, causing hyperpigmentation.

Don’t worry, you won’t need to be paying for those careless mistakes of your youth forever. All you need are the right topical ingredients. There are certain ingredients out there that can target the appearance of excess pigmentation, giving you an even-looking skin tone.

OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews all point to the 24K Cryogenic Restoration Cream as being the go-to product for this. This formula definitely contains some intriguing ingredients…

In addition to retinyl palmitate, which we’ve already mentioned, this blend also contains alpha hydroxy acids to gently exfoliate away dead skin cells, along with melon fruit extract. Of course, you’ll also find vitamin C in this formula – a must have for anyone looking to lighten or brighten the appearance of dark spots.

Since this night cream also contains plenty of humectants and moisturizing components, it’s more than capable of keeping your skin at its best while you sleep. However, it’s also safe for daytime use – just don’t forget to top it off with a sunscreen!

For a Body That Feels Smooth & Soft: OROGOLD Reviews the 24K Classic Body Butter

So far, OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews have focused on the face when it comes to good night creams for mature skin. This is a mistake that you’ll often see in the dermatology world – people pay so much attention to the skin on their face (and rightly so), but then leave the skin on their body neglected.

The skin on your body needs just as much TLC as you age. This is where the 24K Classic Body Butter comes in. It’s delightfully rich and creamy but OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews show that it doesn’t leave the skin feeling greasy. This is down to its special blend of botanicals, including:

Shea butter
Aloe vera leaf juice
Chamomile extract
Cucumber extract
Calendula extract

As you can see, the ingredients are hydrating but they’re not heavy or pore-clogging. That makes this body butter perfect for all skin types.

Before OROGOLD reviews the next night cream on the list, we want to let you in on a little secret…

To give your skin an extra dose of moisture when applying the 24K Overnight Cream, try spritzing it with the 24K Hydrating Body Mist first.

For Targeting the Appearance of Neck Wrinkles: OROGOLD Reviews the 24K Neck Duo Treatment

While your neck is technically a part of your body, the skin on your neck wouldn’t agree. Unlike the skin on your body, the skin on your neck is much thinner and more fragile. This is why wrinkles and the dreaded turkey neck appear in this area faster than anywhere else.

If you want to keep your neck looking tight and youthful, then a good night cream designed for this area is a must. OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews suggest the 24K Neck Duo Treatment is the best way to go.

Rather than being a single night cream, this is actually a two-part system. In addition to targeting the appearance of neck wrinkles, it will also help to fade the visibility of age spots, another issue that people commonly experience on their neck.

How does it work?

You start by applying a couple of pumps of the 24K NeckLift Boosting Essence, making sure that your skin has been cleansed first. This essence is packed with vitamins and herbal extracts, along with, of course, 24K gold.

Follow this up with a small amount of the 24K NeckLift Nutri-Cream. This cream feels quite rich, but that’s exactly what your neck skin needs. In addition to plant oils and butters, this night cream also contains peptides, amino acids, hyaluronic acid, and multiple vitamins.

For Plumping Up the Appearance of Fine Lines: OROGOLD Reviews the 24K Kelp Caviar Micro-Bead Cream

As you can tell from its name, this product is all about the sea, and OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews show that customers absolutely love this. There’s nothing quite as hydrating as kelp. It’s a botanical that everyone with mature skin should be using, which is why OROGOLD has an entire collection dedicated to it!

The 24K Kelp Caviar Micro-Bead Cream targets the appearance of fine lines and deeper wrinkles. However, unlike the other night creams on this list, this night cream only needs to be used once a week. Have a read through some of the OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews out there and you’ll notice that many customers use the product more frequently. However, you’ll also notice that they don’t experience results any faster than those who stick to the recommended advice of weekly use. Trust us – using it more frequently won’t change how effective it is, so save yourself from wasting it and stick to weekly use.

So, the benefit of this night cream, apart from the fact that OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews promise a smoother finish, is that you can easily incorporate it into a skincare routine with another night cream. Use this one on one day of the week, and then pick one of the other night creams on this list for the other six days.

For Moisturizing Dry Skin: OROGOLD Reviews the 24K Deep Moisturizer

If you’ve noticed that your skin feels beautifully moisturized after you’ve applied a night cream, but then dries out surprisingly quickly, then the 24K Deep Moisturizer is what you need.

This formula is designed to leave the skin feeling deeply hydrated.

What’s in it?

Several different botanicals, but you’ll also find a few moisturizing ingredients in here. Vitamin E is one, along with vitamin C.

You’ll also notice beta glucan on the ingredient list. Just like hyaluronic acid, this natural ingredient is also a powerful humectant, making it a must for keeping the skin feeling quenched.

For best results, combine this night cream with a hydrating serum, such as the 24K Nano Night Recovery. OROGOLD Cosmetics reviews show that the two work very well together.

Finding the Perfect Night Cream is Easy at OROGOLD

It may take you a while, but stick with it – once you’ve found the perfect night cream, you’ll be able to visibly see the improvements in your skin. Regular use will give your complexion a smoother, fresher, and brighter look, leaving you with skin that looks far younger than its years. Don’t forget, in addition to night creams, you’ll also find everything from face masks to exfoliants on the OROGOLD website – everything you need for a good skincare routine. Have a browse around and feel free to get in touch with us if you have any questions.

How to Choose the Best OROGOLD 24K Serum for Your Skin

Here at OROGOLD, we love serums. They’re lightweight yet potent, capable of transforming the appearance of the skin. As technologies evolve and new ingredients are discovered, we’re constantly developing new and exciting serum formulas, offering you more choice than ever.

In some ways, this is a good thing. However, if you’re new to the world of serums, then we don’t blame you if you feel a little overwhelmed when browsing all of the gold 24K serum products we have available.

Don’t worry, we’re here to help. This guide will talk you through the various skin types and skin concerns out there, helping you to pick out the best OROGOLD 24K serum (or serums!) for your skin.

Dry Skin

Let’s begin with dry skin, an issue that so many suffer with. In addition to patchy, flaky skin never being a good look, those with dry skin also have to deal with the fact that fine lines and wrinkles become visible at a much earlier age.

Fortunately, serums are a great product to combat the appearance of dryness.

Quick and Easy

If you’re looking for a serum that’s quick to apply and that’s safe to be used every day, then take a look at the OROGOLD 24K Nano Ultra Silk Serum.

This is a water-less formula, meaning that instead of using water as its base, it makes use of oils. As a result, it’s incredibly hydrating. All of those plant oils are exactly what dry skin needs.

Some of the noteworthy ingredients that you’ll find in this formula include:

Sweet almond oil
Wheat germ oil
Sesame seed oil
Sunflower seed oil
Seaweed extract

Taking Things Further

While the gold 24K serum mentioned above is a great one for daily use, dry skin always benefits from an extra boost. This is what the 24K Rose Gold Age Glow Duo provides.

This serum consists of two products:

The 24K Rose Gold Multi-Vital Liquid Powder – this is applied to the skin first. As it’s massaged in, it transforms from a powder to a liquid
The 24K Rose Gold Enriching Serum – this is applied after the powder/liquid has soaked into your skin

This gold 24K serum duo is designed to be used on a weekly basis. It contains a number of star ingredients that give it its moisturizing properties, including:

Sodium hyaluronate
Peptides
Niacinamide
Rose hip seed extract
Resveratrol

Oily Skin

Over on the other end of the skin type spectrum, there’s oily skin. With the skin producing so much excess sebum, the pores quickly end up clogged, leading to breakouts.

Serums are key products in an oily skin skincare routine. In many cases, they may even replace a moisturizer, making it important that you opt for a serum that’s moisturizing. Of course, any good serum designed with oily skin in mind will also contain ingredients that can mattify the look of the skin.

With that being said, here’s our 24K gold serum recommendation for oily skin; the OROGOLD 24K Termica Activation Serum.

This serum has been formulated with witch hazel, an ingredient that’s famed for the way in which it helps the appearance of oily skin. It also contains multiple peptides, seaweed, and sodium hyaluronate to hydrate the feel of the skin, and DMAE, licorice root, and green tea to brighten and tighten the appearance of the complexion.

Sensitive Skin

Sensitive skin isn’t easy to deal with. It’s quick to react to new ingredients and products, making shopping for skincare a frustrating experience.

When it comes down to it, the more ingredients that you apply to your skin, the greater your chances of developing a reaction. So, you need to look for a gold 24K serum with as short an ingredient list as possible.

Now, hear us out, we’re going to suggest something a little out of the box…

Instead of treating your skin to a new serum, how about going for the OROGOLD 24K Wild Caviar instead?

It may not technically be a serum, but it works in the same way. Even better, it contains just three ingredients, making it ideal for sensitive skin.

As you can tell from its name, wild American caviar is the star ingredient in this product. It’ll leave your skin feeling fortified and ready to take on the world.

Dark Spots and Discoloration

Chances are that you spent many summers of your youth neglecting sun protection. You may not have noticed the effects of this back then (other than the odd sunburn), but UV damage accumulates in the skin. Over time, all of that time spent trying to achieve the perfect tan will come back to haunt you in the form of the appearance of dark spots and discoloration. The visibility of fine lines and wrinkles are usually close behind, but that’s an issue for a different gold 24K serum to target.

When it comes to the appearance of dark spots, you’ll want to have the OROGOLD 24K Bio-Brightening Dark Spot Solution on your side.

Designed to be used at night, this serum contains multiple ingredients that’ll brighten the look of your skin, such as vitamins A and C. It’s also formulated with kojic acid, which does the same thing.

You’ll also find lactic acid in this blend. This alpha hydroxy acid will gently exfoliate your skin. This helps to fade the look of those dark spots even faster.

Keep in mind that there’s no point using a dark spot serum unless you’re also keeping your skin protected from the sun. If not, the sun will only darken your discoloration, rendering your serum useless. If you don’t yet have a go-to sunscreen that you love using on a daily basis, give the lightweight and non-greasy 24K Skin Tone SPF 30 a try!

Fine Lines and Wrinkles

The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles are a very common skin concern. This is why you’ll find a few different gold 24K serum products at OROGOLD that are aimed at targeting this issue.

Daily Use

A daily serum is important in any skincare routine. If the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles are your main concern, turn to the 24K Kelp Caviar Micro-Bead Serum.

This lightweight blend contains a number of proven ingredients, such as:

Acetyl hexapeptide-8
Acmella oleracea extract
Kelp extract
Green tea extract
Chamomile flower extract

Try following it up with the 24K Kelp Caviar Micro-Bead Cream for maximum benefits. Alternatively, apply another serum over the top! Adding multiple serums into your skincare routine can be very beneficial. However, try to stop at three. After this, the ingredients in each product will be too diluted to have much of an effect.

One gold 24K serum that works especially well with the 24K Kelp Caviar Micro-Bead Serum is the 24K Rejuvenating Skin Serum. The star ingredient in this blend is hemp seed oil. Although already a natural source of vitamins, the hemp seed oil in this formula has been combined with vitamins A, C, and E, all of which will help to tackle the visible signs of aging on your face.

A Weekly Treat

Your skin will need more than a daily serum if you really want to smooth away the appearance of those wrinkles and tighten up the look of your complexion. Here at OROGOLD, we recommend adding the 24K Caviar Elastin Restoration to your weekly skincare routine.

Now, this product is pretty special. Open the jar and you’ll see small, black, pearl-like capsules. Each one contains a serum dose. Encapsulating the product allows it to stay potent for longer by preventing exposure to air and light, which is how this serum is able to bring about such significant results.

You’ll only need to use one or two capsules on your skin each week, meaning that a single jar of this gold 24K serum will last you for a very long time!

For Special Occasions

Most wrinkle serums don’t work immediately. It’s usually recommended that you use a new serum for a couple of months before judging whether or not it’s worked for you.

That can be frustrating. Sometimes, instant effects are needed!

A product that’s able to instantly smooth away the appearance of wrinkles may sound too good to be true, but you’ll find it here at OROGOLD. Feast your eyes on the 24K Rose Gold IV Filler Concentrate.

Not only does this serum immediately reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles, but it also contains ingredients that will leave your skin feeling hydrated and soft.

Dull Skin

It’s easy for the skin to take on a dull appearance. Fortunately, this is usually related to surface layer issues, making it easy to treat.

When it comes to brightening the look of your skin, just about every dermatologist out there would recommed vitamin C. Combine it with vitamin A and you’ll really see results – the two work even better together.

You’ll find this combination in the OROGOLD 24K Vitamin C Booster Facial Serum. This formula contains two forms of vitamin C to give your skin a double dose of the antioxidant. You’ll also notice wheat germ oil on the ingredient list, which contains compounds capable of brightening the appearance of the skin.

Crow’s Feet

No matter your skin type, the skin around your eyes is thinner than the skin anywhere else on your face. This is why you’ll notice crow’s feet appearing in the area before you start to develop wrinkles on other parts of your face.

While many gold 24K serum formulas are safe to be used around the eyes, it’s always best to have a dedicated eye serum, such as the OROGOLD 24K Intensive Eye Serum.

This formula contains several peptides, ingredients that will leave your skin feeling stronger.

This serum can be used daily, making it a great addition to any anti-aging skincare routine.

For Men

While men can use serum products designed for women without any problems, they don’t tend to be quite as effective as serums created specifically for men.

Why?

Well, many assume that it’s just a marketing ploy, but male skin really is different from female skin. It’s thicker, oilier, and prone to different problems. In order to improve your skin, you really need to look for a product that’s able to deal with the issues that male skin faces.

This is where the OROGOLD 24K Sir Volcanic Blaze comes in. Although created to be used in combination with the 24K Sir Volcanic Mask, this gold 24K serum can also be used as a standalone product.

It’s quite the multi-tasker, able to target a variety of different skin concerns, from the appearance of dry skin to the visibility of dark spots.

The men that have tried that gold 24K serum have absolutely loved it. They find that effects are maximized when they combine the serum with other products from the OROGOLD Sir Collection, all of which have been designed with men in mind.

Round-Up

Hopefully, you’ll now have a good idea as to which gold 24K serum products would be best suited to your skin. No matter what you’re dealing with, you’ll find an OROGOLD serum that’s capable of helping you.

Is There a Way to Instantly Reduce the Appearance of Wrinkles?

Aging is a natural part of life. It’s something we can’t avoid.

And with aging comes wrinkles.

Well, if you’re searching for the secret to youthful-looking skin, this article is for you.

Join us here at OROGOLD Cosmetics in talking about a unique solution that offers fast and instant results! Say goodbye to the appearance of wrinkles with our very own OROGOLD 24K DMAE Wrinkle Tightening Solution.

All About OROGOLD Cosmetics

Before we delve deeper into the secrets of this unique product, let’s first discuss what exactly makes OROGOLD’s skincare special.

The star ingredient behind each of our products is pure gold.

This is what sets us apart, and this is what makes our products luxurious for the skin.

Using gold in skincare is a tradition that started in ancient times. Gold’s beautifying properties have been harnessed throughout history — from Cleopatra’s habit of sleeping in a gold mask, to using gold in Ancient China to maintain one’s youth.

Here at OROGOLD, we believe that gold can help pamper your skin, and give it a naturally flawless and radiant appearance.

How, you ask?

Well, gold provides the skin with a plethora of benefits that can help retain its youthful look. You’ll find out more about this glimmering ingredient later on.

Get Instant Results with the OROGOLD 24K DMAE Wrinkle Tightening Solution

Wondering how this solution works? Not convinced that anything can actually deliver instant results when it comes to reducing the appearance of wrinkles?

It may sound too good to be true, but this solution does work!

How, you ask? The secret is in its ingredients.

The 24K DMAE Wrinkle Tightening Solution utilizes a blend of some of the best ingredients for tightening the appearance of wrinkles: DMAE and Hyaluronic Acid, among others. Through these ingredients, this lightweight solution gives your skin a temporary tightened feeling, and ultimately softens the visibility of fine lines. It even improves the appearance of sagging skin!

Let’s take a closer look at each of its star ingredients.

DMAE

Dimethylaminoethanol, also called DMAE, is a compound best known as a possible precursor to acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter.

However, more recently, scientists have started exploring DMAE’s benefits in skincare in more detail. A study has shown that regularly applying 3% DMAE on the face significantly helps in mitigating the appearance of forehead lines, fine wrinkles, and other signs of aging.

The good news? These benefits don’t go away, even after stopping the use of DMAE for a few weeks!

Here at OROGOLD, we love DMAE so much that we’ve dedicated an entire collection to it. Check it out here!

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is another ingredient that actively fights the appearance of wrinkles. This ingredient is especially helpful in reducing the appearance of wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions, such as smile lines and crow’s feet.

It’s also mildly hydrating, which aids in making the skin look plumper, firmer, and fuller. In addition to the Wrinkle Tightening Solution, you’ll also find Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 in the OROGOLD 24K Termica Completion Cream and the 24K Kelp Caviar Micro-Bead Serum.

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally produced and present in the skin. What it does is keep the skin feeling moist and lubricated.

But how exactly does this benefit the skin? And what does it have to do with reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines?

Well, hyaluronic acid plays a key role in moisturizing and hydrating the skin. This, in turn, helps the skin look and feel more supple.

With sufficient hydration, wrinkles and fine lines are less visible.

Retinyl Palmitate

Vitamin A is perhaps the most famous, scientifically-backed anti-aging ingredient. And, retinyl palmitate is a derivative of this star ingredient: it’s a combination of pure Vitamin A (retinol), and palmitic acid, a fatty acid.

Just like retinol, retinyl palmitate has been proven to pose a host of benefits to the skin. It’s effective in reducing the appearance of fine lines and giving the skin tone a more even and balanced look.

The best part? Retinyl palmitate is perfectly safe, even for sensitive skin. It’s gentler than retinoids, but provides the skin with the same benefits.

Gold

Of course, we can’t forget gold, our signature ingredient here at OROGOLD Cosmetics.

This is another ingredient that works well at reducing the appearance of wrinkles and giving the skin a healthier look.

With such amazing ingredients, it’s no wonder that the OROGOLD 24K DMAE Wrinkle Tightening Solution does wonders to the skin.

Upon application, you’ll certainly see your lines looking softer and less pronounced. Generally, these temporary effects last for up to 12 hours, or until you remove the product from your face.

Not sure how to use the 24K DMAE Wrinkle Tightening Solution? Well, here’s how!

How to Use the 24K DMAE Wrinkle Tightening Solution

You can use this product day or night, depending on what works for you. If you’re looking to use this solution regularly, you can apply it once a week. However, it’s also perfectly alright to use the product on the day of a special occasion, when you want your wrinkles less obvious.

Cleanse the skin prior to application. Then, press the top of the syringe down to the skin. Apply this product directly to wrinkles and fine lines you want to minimize the look of. Then, remove any excess product with a cotton swab if needed.

Once your day is done, you can simply wash or wipe the product away.

How to Avoid the Appearance of Wrinkles and Fine Lines

Having this product by your side certainly has its perks, but that doesn’t mean you have a free pass not to take care of your skin!

On the contrary, it’s even more reason for you to pay careful attention to daily activities that might be causing you wrinkles.

Here are a few things you can try to prevent the appearance of wrinkles and aging skin:

Regularly Cleanse Your Skin

Never underestimate the power of a good cleanser.

Throughout the day, makeup, beauty products, and even dust and dirt from the environment all pile up on our skin. Thorough cleansing rids the skin of these impurities, ensuring the pores don’t get clogged and damaged further by these elements.

So, never forget to cleanse your skin prior to using your favorite products, including the 24K DMAE Wrinkle Tightening Solution!

For best results, you can choose from OROGOLD Cosmetics’ best-selling cleansers: the 24K Mousse Cleanser, and the 24K Vitamin C Facial Cleanser.

Exfoliate Your Skin

Exfoliation is an essential process for reducing the look of dullness and roughness.

OROGOLD has different exfoliating products you can choose from. Our personal recommendation is the 24K Multi-Vitamin Deep Peeling + Mandelic Acid, which utilizes the gentlest alpha-hydroxy acid, Mandelic Acid, for a gentle yet effective exfoliating experience.

Protect Your Skin From the Sun

The sun is the number one cause of skin damage and aging. So, using adequate protection is a must!

The American Academy of Dermatology recommends using at least SPF3 0 for sufficient protection against the sun’s UVB rays.

Luckily, we at OROGOLD Cosmetics offer a sunscreen that provides ample protection. Check out the 24K Skin Tone SPF 30 if you want a lightweight but effective sunscreen to shield your skin from the sun’s violent rays!

Use Eye Serums or Eye Creams

The skin around the eyes is the thinnest, most sensitive area on the face.

That’s why using regular moisturizers or serums just won’t work! Rather, it’s best to invest in products formulated specifically for the sensitive skin around the eyes.

That’s where eye serums and eye creams enter the scene.

These products are formulated specifically to keep the skin around the eyes moisturized and hydrated, thus helping prevent the appearance of those dreaded wrinkles and fine lines that usually form around the eyes.

They also have added ingredients that benefit the skin around the eyes, such as caffeine and Vitamin C! These products help with the look of puffiness, eye bags, and discoloration — problems that normally plague the skin around the eyes.

If you want a luxurious experience for your skin, why not choose among OROGOLD Cosmetics’ assortment of eye serums and eye creams? You’ll surely be able to find something that fits your needs.

Summary

Hopefully, OROGOLD has now given you everything that you need to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. In addition to having the 24K DMAE Wrinkle Tightening Solution by your side, it’s also a good idea to ensure that the rest of your skincare routine is packed with beneficial products. Feel free to get in touch if you need some advice on picking the best OROGOLD products for your skin!

The Secret to Effective Exfoliation

Exfoliation can sometimes sound intimidating when you’re new to the skincare game. But anyone who loves pampering their skin to give it a gorgeous glow can tell you that it’s the secret to a complexion that looks smooth, radiant, and blemish-free.

It’s challenging to get into it when you’re just starting out, especially with all the confusing things you hear online. Some say exfoliation can irritate your skin when it isn’t done properly, others cry out that a few scrubs are bad for the environment, while most rave about it and think it’s non-negotiable.

And then there’s the trouble of picking out the exfoliator that is best for you. There are a plethora of options out there. Should you get that body scrub you’ve always wanted to try, or a more luxurious, gold-infused vitamin C gel that sheds off dead skin with minimal effort from your end?

Today, we’ll talk about the ins and outs of exfoliation and why it’s needed to make your skincare routine more effective. We’ll also let you in on a little OROGOLD 24 Deep Peeling review so you can take a peek at what makes our holy grail exfoliator tick.

First of All, What is Exfoliation & Why is it Important?

Essentially, exfoliation is the act of sloughing off dead skin cells that have built up on your skin. This process reveals skin that looks brighter and more rejuvenated.

Since exfoliating washes away dead skin that makes your skin look duller by the day, it makes your skin look clear and glowy. But that’s just one of the benefits of exfoliating your skin.

Exfoliating is also fabulous for unclogging congestion in your pores. Scrubs and exfoliating acids either push out or dissolve the stubborn sebum clogging your pores. This prevents acne breakouts or a build-up of blackheads. So it’s also key in leaving your skin looking blemish-free.

This single step also helps empower your entire skincare routine. Why? Because dead skin cells form something like a barrier when they’re just sitting on your face. That means that your expensive creams and serums are likely not penetrating your skin properly.

And if you have dark spots and an uneven skin texture due to acne scarring, you’ll be happy to know that exfoliators can help with the appearance of those too. It makes your complexion look and feel more even.

The Two Kinds of Exfoliation

There are tons of exfoliating products in your typical beauty store aisle, but not all of them work the same way. All exfoliators fall into two main types: physical and chemical exfoliators. Technically, their end goal is the same — to get rid of dead skin. But their plan of attack differs immensely.

Physical Exfoliators

First, let’s talk about physical exfoliators. These are the ones with microbeads, fine grains, and particles. You use them to manually scrub off dead skin lying on your skin’s surface. You could also use loofahs and body brushes to exfoliate as well.

Some physical exfoliators use plastic microbeads and get a bad rap for not being eco-friendly. Using bigger exfoliants like shells and seeds can also be too abrasive and irritating on the skin. So when shopping for scrubs, look for fine, water-soluble grains, like salt and sugar.

Chemical Exfoliators

Next up, we have the more sophisticated chemical exfoliants, which work by dissolving the dirt and debris on your skin with gentle acids. They eliminate the appearance of dullness by unsticking the bonds holding dead skin cells together on your complexion.

And don’t be intimidated by the word “acid”! It sounds a bit scary, but they’re very effective and gentle on the skin. Tons of acids can chemically exfoliate the complexion, from glycolic acid to salicylic acid.

A Gentle, Luxurious, Effective Way to Exfoliate Your Skin

Your chemical exfoliant must be gentle and friendly to sensitive skin. Never buy one of those exfoliators that will peel your delicate skin off and tug at it without leaving any real effect on your skin.

That’s why we developed the 24k Multi-Vitamin Deep Peeling — a lush and opulent gel that is as beautiful as it is effective at exfoliating your skin.

It’s made with mandelic acid and vitamin C, which brighten the appearance of the skin and eliminate dead skin cells. There’s also some fine bamboo stem powder infused in the formula for gentle polishing and manual exfoliation without the risk of being too rough and abrasive on your complexion.

For a touch of luxury and lavishness, it’s infused with gold. This adds some glimmer and a lively sparkle to your skin.

The best part is that it’s a wash-off peel. Just apply it to your skin, leave it for a few minutes, and then rinse with water. None of those harsh and drying masks that you need to literally pull and peel off your face, leaving your skin irritated.

This peel leaves your skin feeling fresh and looking radiant and luminous. Go ahead and check out any OROGOLD 24 Deep Peeling review online and see how loyalists rave about its effects.

How the Star Ingredients in the OROGOLD 24K Deep Peeling Work Together

We can’t stop raving about this product because of its plethora of powerhouse ingredients! And this OROGOLD 24 Deep Peeling review won’t be complete without putting them under the spotlight for everyone to appreciate better. So how do they all work together?

First up, we have mandelic acid — an alpha-hydroxy acid known to be gentler than most acids, making it perfect for sensitive skin that needs a boost of radiance.

Our peel also has vitamin C — everyone’s favorite juicy antioxidant — to give your skin more glow.

If there’s anything you should take away from this OROGOLD 24 Deep Peeling review, it’s that it comprises of hardworking ingredients that are potent yet suitable for all skin types.

Why Opt for Chemical Exfoliation Over Manual Exfoliation

Even if this OROGOLD 24 Deep Peeling review makes it sound impressive, you may be asking…

Why opt for a gentle gel and sit and wait a while for noticeable results if you can grab a grainy scrub and scruff away the dead skin yourself?

Well, for many reasons, chemical exfoliation is better than physical exfoliation. Yes, physical scrubs give you instant gratification, but they can be super abrasive on your skin.

If you’re too rough with your application, you can create small wounds in your skin called micro-tears. This ultimately damages your skin barrier, making you more susceptible to irritation and acne.

So while the acids in chemical exfoliants and peels sound scarier and more intimidating, they’re actually gentler on the skin. Instead of roughly scrubbing away your dead skin, they merely dissolve it over time. They effectively do the same thing as your scrubs, just without the harshness.

What Happens to Your Skin When You Exfoliate Regularly?

Incorporating an exfoliator into your skincare routine has amazing benefits in the long run. First and foremost, you’ll always feel like your skin is clean and fresh, never clogged or congested. Because the exfoliating acids work to get rid of dead, dull skin, you’ll always enjoy skin that looks clear and luminous.

Chemical exfoliants also prevent the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. This allows you to flaunt skin that looks taut and firm for longer.

Take this OROGOLD 24 Deep Peeling review as a sign that you should treat your skin out to a luxurious exfoliating solution that will leave your skin feeling fresh and looking gorgeous.

Caution: Don’t Over-Exfoliate! Why You May Regret It

Reading this OROGOLD 24 Deep Peeling review might tempt you to use the luxurious gel every day. After all, it promises glowing skin, right? But you should know that over-exfoliating your skin way too much can lead to a lot more harm than good.

When you exfoliate your skin too often, you could dry out your complexion, leaving redness and even more flakiness on your face. You might even notice some inflammation since you’re essentially rubbing your skin raw by exfoliating too much when you don’t need it.

You should only exfoliate your skin once or twice a week — any more than this is unnecessary. For those of you who are exfoliating physically or chemically for more than that, your skin is probably on the brink of intense irritation. If you keep up with over-exfoliating your skin, you could even develop red, patchy rashes!

Can you relate?

If you notice any of these over-exfoliation symptoms, stop your acids and scrubs right away and let your skin breathe a bit. When your skin barrier has recovered and doesn’t feel sensitive and tender anymore, create a more appropriate schedule for your exfoliation.

Is Exfoliation Recommended for All Skin Types?

Yes, exfoliation is generally needed no matter what skin type you have.

Dry skin is probably the type of skin in the direst need of exfoliation. This is because avid dehydration almost always leads to the issue of flakiness. And if you have dry skin, you know that flakiness does nothing but emphasize how parched your complexion is.

Without exfoliating your skin, all these flakes of dead cells can sit on your skin and accumulate. This leaves your skin looking rough, dull, and unkempt. This also renders your skincare products useless because of the blockage it causes.

That said, exfoliation is also beneficial to oily skin. When your skin produces a lot of oil and sebum, you’re more prone to acne, blackheads, and whiteheads. Exfoliating with acids is a great way to keep these blemishes at bay and even fade the visibility of dark spots left behind by previous breakouts.

Anyone can benefit from the magic of exfoliating. So, even if you have oily skin that doesn’t battle with flakiness, you should still take this OROGOLD 24 Deep Peeling review to heart.

Conclusion

We know what you’re thinking — exfoliation sounds like a lot of hard work, especially when you think about all the different types of exfoliators and what ingredients you should look out for. Hopefully, this OROGOLD 24 Deep Peeling review helps make things easier to digest.

It’s really just a matter of informing yourself of what exfoliation does, what ingredients work for you, and what products will make you feel your absolute best.

Thankfully, the 24k Multi-Vitamin Deep Peeling does it all.

It’s perfect for everyone, whether you have sensitive skin, need to do away with the look of flaky dryness, or are trying to get rid of the appearance of dark spots. It’s a no-brainer exfoliator if we ever saw one. Just a couple of weeks with this holy grail gel, and you’ll be flaunting skin that looks plump, clear, and glowy.

8 Things You Need to Know Before Using AHAs on Your Skin

AHAs have been all the buzz in the skincare world, and for good reason. Known for their ability to exfoliate and resurface the appearance of the skin, these acids can give you the radiant-looking skin of your dreams. Before you add an AHA product to your skincare repertoire, though, there are a few things you should know.

What is an AHA?

AHA stands for alpha hydroxy acid. They are water-soluble acids derived from sugar, fruits, nuts, or dairy products. AHAs are mainly used to exfoliate the skin by removing dead cells from its surface. The strength of an AHA is determined by the type and concentration of the acid and its pH level.

AHAs work by dissolving the “glue” that holds skin cells together and allowing dead skin cells to slough off more easily.

There are a few different kinds of AHAs:

Glycolic acid

Glycolic acid has some of the smallest molecules of AHAs, which allows it to penetrate the skin deeper than other AHAs. This means that glycolic acid is one of the most effective AHAs you can use on your skin. That also means that it’s one of the strongest, so beginners might want to steer away from this ingredient and begin with a gentler AHA.

While glycolic acid is naturally derived from sugar, it is most effective when it is lab-created and optimized for its use in skincare products.

Lactic acid

Lactic acid has larger molecules than glycolic acid and is more gentle on the skin. Because of this, it might take a bit longer to notice the effects of using lactic acid. This acid is great for those who are just beginning their foray into the world of acids.

Mandelic acid

Mandelic acid has even larger molecules than lactic acid and is one of the gentlest AHAs you can use on your skin. It’s great for those with sensitive, easily irritated skin who might want to avoid stronger acids.

Mandelic acid is derived from almonds, so those with nut allergies should steer clear of this ingredient.

Malic acid

Malic acid has larger molecules and penetrates the skin slower. While it’s not considered too effective of an ingredient on its own, it can boost the efficacy of other AHAs. This is why it is often formulated with a combination of other AHAs.

Malic acid is derived from apples, but it’s more commonly found in its synthetic form, which is easier to stabilize.

Tartaric acid

Tartaric acid has almost double the molecule size of glycolic acid. It is used primarily as a pH adjuster in skincare products, making other acids such as glycolic and lactic acid more effective.

Tartaric acid comes from grapes, but, like malic acid, is often used in its synthetic form.

What’s the Difference Between AHAs and BHAs?

Both AHAs and BHAs are used to exfoliate the skin. The difference lies in their solubility: while AHAs are water-soluble, BHAs are oil-soluble. This changes the way they work on the skin.

As water-soluble acids, AHAs work at the skin’s surface to dissolve the bonds that hold dead skin cells together. On the other hand, oil-soluble BHAs are able to cut through oil and penetrate pores to remove dead skin cells and excess sebum. This makes BHAs great for those with oily skin, clogged, pores, or acne. Salicylic acid, the most popular BHA, is also antibacterial, which makes it even more effective at fighting pesky spots.

While neither acid is better, it’s important to understand how each acid works to choose which one is best for your skin.

If you’re wondering if an AHA is right for you, here’s what you should know.

You Must Use a Sunscreen

Before you start using an AHA, it’s important to have a sunscreen you know you will use. We can’t emphasize this enough — sunscreen is an absolute must when you use an AHA! This is because AHAs make your skin more sensitive to the sun and increase your risk of sunburn. By exfoliating your skin, AHAs reveal newer, smoother-looking skin underneath, which is more susceptible to sun damage. If you’re using an AHA to address the visible effects of aging, such as the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, or age spots, you don’t want to further damage your skin by going without sunscreen.

How to choose the right sunscreen:

The best sunscreen out there is the one you will use. As long as you’re using a broad spectrum sunscreen of at least SPF 30 everyday, rain or shine, your skin will thank you.

Luckily, modern sunscreens are completely different from the thick, white sunscreens you might remember from your childhood summers. Nowadays, there are a ton of cosmetically elegant sunscreens on the market that will make applying them a treat rather than a chore. You can take your pick from physical or chemical sunscreens, or a combination of the two. Make sure to apply the proper amount of sunscreen (around half a teaspoon for your face alone!) as the last step of your skincare routine and before applying makeup.

Start Using AHAs Slowly

We get it — it can be exciting to start using an AHA, especially because it promises to give you better-looking skin. It can be tempting to start using your AHA whenever you have the chance in the hopes of seeing faster results.

Our advice? Don’t.

It’s important to follow the instructions on your AHA product, but generally, it’s good practice to introduce them to your skin slowly. This means using your AHA product only a few times a week to see how your skin reacts. Once your skin acclimates, you can start using it every other day, before graduating to daily use when your skin builds up a tolerance.

Start with a Gentler Acid or Lower Percentages

Exploring the world of chemical exfoliation is exciting, and you might be lured into trying stronger AHA products in order to accelerate the process to smoother-looking skin. On top of introducing your AHA product to your skin slowly, we recommend starting with a more gentle acid if you’re just beginning your foray into acids.

If you’re a beginner, here’s how to choose the right AHA:

Luckily, when it comes to AHAs, you have a number of different options. You could start with a gentler AHA, like mandelic acid, or a lower percentage (around 5%) of lactic or glycolic acid.

We recommend starting with a gentle AHA product like OROGOLD’s 24k Multi-Vitamin Deep Peeling + Mandelic Acid. It’s also formulated with vitamin C, which helps brighten the appearance of the skin, and bamboo stem powder. It’s a gentle way to exfoliate dead skin cells and reveal smoother, brighter-looking skin underneath.

If you want to start with a stronger acid like glycolic acid, tread carefully. Glycolic acid is the most effective out of all the AHAs, which is great, but not so great for those just starting out with acids or those with sensitive skin.

The pH of Your AHA Product Matters

Unfortunately, when it comes to chemical exfoliation, you can’t just use any old product and expect it to work as advertised. Some products that contain AHAs might not work as intended if they’re not at the right pH. Formulation matters, and the pH-level of your AHA product will determine how effective it is on your skin. Changing the pH also changes the amount of AHA will be absorbed into your skin.

AHAs are most effective with a pH of around 3.5-4. Avoid products with a pH of below 2.5 — this may make the AHA too irritating for your skin and disrupt its acid mantle, which is typically around a pH of 4.7

Here’s how to determine the pH of your AHA:

This is where it gets a bit tricky. Most products don’t advertise their pH level, and even if they do, it might not be accurate. Your best bet is to get your own pH strips to test your products’ pH levels. Otherwise, you could try contacting the brand’s representative to ask about the pH of your product.

You Can Disrupt Your Moisture Barrier if You Use AHAs Incorrectly

Using acids is no joke, and if you’re not careful, you could over-exfoliate your skin and seriously damage your moisture barrier, which leads to dry, dehydrated, irritated, and flaky skin. Your skin may look stretched out and crepey, with more pronounced fine lines and wrinkles. Basically, a damaged moisture barrier is not what you want to get out of your AHA.

Here’s what to do if you’ve over-exfoliated your skin:

If you suspect you’ve damaged your moisture barrier from overusing your AHA or using too strong of a product, stop all active use immediately — this includes vitamin C and retinoids, too. Focus on babying your skin for the meantime, like using a watery hydrator or a serum to leave your skin feeling hydrated.

AHAs Can Help Address Visible Signs of Skin Aging

If you’re wondering how to get rid of a few pesky age spots or if you’re bothered by a few fine lines or wrinkles, using an AHA is a great way to reduce their appearance.

There’s one caveat, though: since using an AHA makes your skin more sensitive to the sun, you can actually increase your risk of premature aging from photodamage if you don’t use a sunscreen. You don’t want all your hard work to go to waste, so it’s important to keep your skin protected with a broad spectrum SPF. Using a sunscreen is one of the best things you can do to prevent premature aging caused by the sun, so you should be using one anyway!

AHAs Can Hydrate the Feel of Your Skin

Unlike BHAs, AHAs are humectants, which means they’re water-loving ingredients that draw water to the skin. This means that on top of exfoliating your skin, they can also hydrate it. No AHA does this better than lactic acid. This quality makes lactic acid great for those with dry or dehydrated skin.

AHAs Can Take a While to Show Significant Results

When you use an AHA, your skin may look brighter and more radiant right away, but it can take some time, from a few weeks to a few months, to see a significant reduction in the appearance of clogged pores, rough texture, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation. Even if you think your skin has plateaued, keep using your AHA — you’ll start to see major differences in a few months.

The Bottom Line on AHAs

AHAs are a great way to exfoliate the skin and achieve a complexion that looks smoother, brighter, and more radiant. When you start using an AHA, remember to go slow and to listen to your skin to avoid over-exfoliation. Always follow product directions to avoid misuse and, most importantly, never forget to wear a sunscreen!
